• Abstract: Machine Learning (ML) DevOps, also known as MLOps, has emerged as a critical framework for efficiently operationalizing ML models in various industries. This study investigates the adoption trends, implementation efforts, and benefits of ML DevOps through a combination of literature review and empirical analysis. By surveying 150 professionals across industries and conducting in-depth interviews with 20 practitioners, the study provides insights into the growing adoption of ML DevOps, particularly in sectors like finance and healthcare. The research identifies key challenges, such as fragmented tooling, data management complexities, and skill gaps, which hinder widespread adoption. However, the findings highlight significant benefits, including improved deployment frequency, reduced error rates, enhanced collaboration between data science and DevOps teams, and lower operational costs. Organizations leveraging ML DevOps report accelerated model deployment, increased scalability, and better compliance with industry regulations. The study also explores the technical and cultural efforts required for successful implementation, such as investments in automation tools, real-time monitoring, and upskilling initiatives. The results indicate that while challenges remain, ML DevOps presents a viable path to optimizing ML lifecycle management, ensuring model reliability, and enhancing business value. Future research should focus on standardizing ML DevOps practices, assessing the return on investment across industries, and developing frameworks for seamless integration with traditional DevOps methodologies

  This paper proposes DSMoE, a novel approach that achieves sparsification by partitioning pre-trained FFN layers into computational blocks. We implement adaptive expert routing using sigmoid activation and straight-through estimators, enabling tokens to flexibly access different aspects of model knowledge. Experiments on LLaMA models demonstrate that under equivalent computational constraints, DSMoE achieves superior performance compared to existing pruning and MoE approaches.
